    I live naked and barefooted, very close to Earth and Nature, in an 18-acre, off-grid, clothing-optional, food-forest intentional community (GaiaYoga Gardens), way out in the jungles of Lower Puna, far East Big Island, Hawai'i, and I have for more than 5 years now. Although there are many challenges, I love my life, and I'm immensely grateful to live where and how I do, on my own terms! I would not want to live any other way! 😁🙏💚⚡💥🔥✴️✳️❇️👣🌱✨🤙

    Warm greetings all! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

    In posts several months back I was highlighting and talking about Hive's greatest weakness, and most notable and probable point of attack and failure when we find ourselves in tyranny's crosshairs, namely its almost complete relance on the centrally-controlled 13 ICANN root DNS servers. Basically, if the powers that be decide that they want to erase a website from the internet, the easiest way to do so is to block its DNS resolution, in other words to remove the binding between the website name that we type into web browsers, and it's numerical IP address. Doing so would mean that a website would still exist and be fully functional, but that nobody would be able to find or get to it to be able to access it.

    In those posts I also talked about different potential ways to counter this wide-open attack vector, one of which was to create a Native Hive DNS Service, which would keep a constantly-updated list of Hive websites and their IP addresses, which would then allow typed website names to be resolved to their numerical IP addresses, and completely independently from the 13 ICANN root servers. Today an idea came to me which I wanted to mention, on a possible way to implement this Native Hive DNS Service, that would make it available to the whole Hive community.

    What is the most-used Hive app? If you said Hive Keychain, you hit the nail on the head. Hive Keychain, both in its mobile apps and its browser extensions, is the defacto portal to the Hive world. Integrating this Native Hive DNS Service into Hive Keychain seems like an ideal way to implement and make it available and usable by the whole Hive community, and in a completely seamless manner.

    Since I'm not (yet) a coder or programmer, I don't necessarily know exactly how easy or challenging doing this would be, or how much it would increase the size or complexity of Hive Keychain's code, but given the huge importance of countering this DNS point of attack and failure for our Blockchain, I'd suggest that some attention and time devoted to this on the part of the Hive Keychain devs would be a very beneficial, helpful, and useful idea, for the whole Hive Ecosystem. This would would be a way of future-proofing Hive, and making it more resilient to potential attacks and failures, which to me is absolutely essential, especially with the direction things have been going now. To help get some eyes on this idea, and get discussion started around it, I'll tag the Hive Keychain team, @stoodkev, @cedricguillas, @theghost1980, @manuphotos, and @yabapmatt, as well as my friend @borniet, to hopefully and potentially get the ball rolling. I hope that y'all don't mind the tags.

    Yesterday, Monday, I left the Flow House a little after 2:30PM, putting my focus, as I usually do, on straining out and blending kefir (kefir-honey-cinnamon-cacao). I also got a fair number of photos for these posts taken at various points in the day, too, when the sun peaked out from behind the clouds. I was feeling called yesterday to focus more on self-care, and doing things that made me feel good, like sunbathing on the trampoline in the Peanut Lawn, or going for a very mellow and relaxing walk down our jungle road, than on land work. Some days are like that, and I think that they're very necessary as well. It can't all be about finishing projects and work, as that stuff is always going to be there, and actually enjoying our time is equally important, too. I did end up making food for Iolanthe and her friend Eela down at Tutu's just before I returned to the Flow House for my evening Hive tasks, and catching up on my notifications. I finished everything up on Hive just a bit after 11:30PM, later than usual, and after scanning my Bastyon and X feeds, I went to bed around 12AM. I did thankfully sleep well, waking up around 5AM, doing a little token management, then going back to bed until about 7:30AM, doing a bit more token management, starting on this post, then getting out of bed just before 9AM to go make my superfood fire coffee.

    It's now just before 1:30PM, so an excellent time to end this post, so that I may get to a few important Hive tasks, before leaving the Flow House later in the afternoon, to first strain out and blend kefir, maybe take more photos for these posts, and then land work. I deeply appreciate y'all so very much! Until the next expression of this post tomorrow! Always forward, onward, and upward, joyfully together! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

    2024 Life Goals

    1.) Heal my broken heart, reignite my heart sun, and embody a solid, healthy masculine, allowing my electric fire to shine bright, no matter what others, especially women, say or do. 
    
    2.) Bring myself and my life back into balance, integration, and wholeness. 
    
    3.) Do regular (naked) integral practices again, alone or with others. 
    
    4.) Dance regularly again.
    
    5.) Work with natural entheogens (mushrooms, ganja, ayahuasca), with punctuated regularity, as a part of my healing process again. 
    
     6.) Get, and keep, regular deep, integral energy-body-tantric work healing sessions for women flowing again.
    
    7.) Prepare regular batches of my medicinal teas collected from the land again. 
    
    8.) Make my plant nursery beautiful again.
    
    9.) Live as an integral part of a juicy heart-resonant soul tribe community, with deep, coherent mutual and shared passion, purpose, mission, love, warmth care, sweetness, reverence, respect, aliveness, admiration, excitement, enjoyment, playfulness, work, fun, laughter, attraction, and all-level connections and relationships. 
    
    10.) Make love with the woman, or the women, that I love, every day, as a sacred devotional practice. 
    
    11.) Begin learning relevant coding/programming languages to more fully contribute to the sovereignty-driven technologies where I am active, like Arch Linux, Hive, Qortal, DeSo, and Bastyon.
